New Roku app is great. Still, I am greedy so want the password protection. Search by Star’s name would be more useful than title. It would be nice if when you left a DVD found by search you returned to the search results and not have to enter it all over again.
Flow Mode is a great addition to VB and it would be nice to have on Roku.
Thanks for the great improvements.

re: password protection: do you mean you want something beyond the 4-digit parental control? I considered adding an alternate locking interface that would use your user password instead of the 4-digit pin, but entering that with the roku remote was a bit cumbersome.

I agree I really like the new app. I think you already have this feedback captured but it took me a few minutes to figure out where my full stash was. But no problem now with that. The PIN protection is a nice feature, I’d recommend including instructions on how to set it up somewhere within the app -even it just directs you to go to your account settings on the computer. Finally, I’d like to be able to add to my stash folders directly on the roku app. Maybe you can build that into a future release. Thanks!

@Polksalad1: good stuff, thanks. I’ll definitely work on shoring up the messaging in the near future. And I agree about being able to manipulate your stash from within the app; I’ll be adding features to support that very soon.
